Devil Pigs On Horseback Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Stuff each date with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of blue cheese and wrap date with half a slice of bacon; secure with a toothpick. Arrange on the baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place 24 toothpicks in a small bowl filled with water; let soak 15 minutes. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and fit with a wire rack; set aside.
• Halve dates lengthwise being careful not to cut all the way through. Place a small amount of cheese in the center of each date. Wrap a piece of bacon around each date. Secure bacon with a toothpick.
• Place dates on prepared baking sheet. Bake until bacon is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Gently saute the livers in butter, then cut into thin slices and dust lightly with cayenne pepper. Stuff the prunes with chicken livers. Stretch the bacon pieces with a flat knife. Wrap a piece around each prune and secure with a wooden cocktail stick. Grill until the bacon is crisp.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Soak the toothpicks in a bowl of water. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce and ground ginger. Place the brown sugar into a shallow bowl. Spread open a pitted date, then stuff it with a smoked almond. Wrap the date with half a bacon slice, secure it with a toothpick, dip the bundle in soy sauce mixture, and then dip it into brown sugar. Place the wrapped dates into the prepared baking dish. If desired, sprinkle a little more brown sugar over the bundles.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the bacon is brown and crisp, 15 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes before serving; serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small pan over a low heat, and fry the onion for 10 mins until softened and golden. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
• Squeeze the sausagemeat from the skins into a bowl, and tip in the fried onions and sage, grate over some nutmeg and season with plenty of black pepper. Use your hands to mix until the ingredients are combined, then divide into 12 portions and roll into balls. Split each prune down the middle lengthways so it can be opened out like a book. Press a sausage ball into the middle of each prune, carefully wrapping the prune around it to encase the stuffing. Wrap a bacon rasher around each stuffed prune, then thread a cocktail stick through the loose ends to secure the bacon. Place the devils on horseback on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Will keep, covered in the fridge, for up to 24 hrs.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 7. Brush the devils on horseback with the oil and bake for 15-20 mins until the bacon is crisp and golden, and the stuffing is cooked through.
